The Right Honourable George Earle of Cumberland.


I. My heauie sprite opprest with sorrowes might


       My heauie sprite opprest with sorrowes might,
       Of wearied limbs the burthen soare sustaines,
       With silent grones and harts teares still complaines,
       Yet I breath still and liue in lifes despight.
       Haue I lost thee? All fortunes I accurse,
           Bids thee farewell, with thee all ioyes farewell,
           And for thy sake this world becomes my hell.
